Lazy Susan Kettlebell Buffet at the Hive

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Mountain climbers, Imperial walkers, Arm circles. Brief mozy around the parking lot.
THE THANG: All Pax grab their kettlebell and form a line on the same pavement seam at COT. Left arm touching the person next to them’s shoulder for spacing. Everyone then leaves their kettlebell at their feet and makes the same line to the right of all kettlebells while assuming the plank position. Pax at the end passes the first bell to the person on their right who then passes it on to the next, etc. After passing the bell, each pax side-planks to their left to receive the next kettlebell. Rinse and repeat until all kettlebells have been passed through the line. Once completed, Pax on the right repeats and passes the bells to their left until all have been passed through the line.
Pax then moved to the base of the hill and faces the small roundabout equally-ish spaced around the circle, placing their kettlebell at their feet. Each Pax does 8 reps of one exercise using their own bell then side planks to their right to the next bell for the same exercise. Rinse and repeat until returning back to their own kettlebell. (56 total reps). Exercises were flutter with press, swings, upright rows, triceps. Mode of transportation alternated each lap between side planks and lunges.
Mozy to the bottom of the hill. There were five cones placed going up the hill with the final cone being at the top. Pax would run to the first cone and back to the previous where they grab their kettlebell and returned to the first cone. At each cone there is a single exercise written on it. Pax complete the exercise (20 reps) then rinse and repeat the process to get to the next cone and up the hill. Exercises were “from the ground up” and included kettlebell merkins, calf raises, squats, shoulder presses, and halos.
What goes up must come down so we repeated the process to get back to the start.
With a few minutes left, we returned to the circle for a lap of biceps curls and side planks before returning to COT.
MARY: Nada.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: T-Day Convergence, holiday party, newsletter.
COT: Family, holiday stress, enjoying every moment and being thankful for what we have.

Bushpit Dual Q (or Q Duel?)

Leave a comment

Rock, Scissors, Paper for who took the warmup: Birdcage won

WARMUP:
– Indian run

THE THANG:
OldBay Part 1:
Run to first of 4 cones set up to cover a large area for “Catch me if you can”. Pax partner up, size doesn’t matter. Partner 1 does stationary exercise while partner 2 does moving exercise (working their way around all 4 cones). Once P1 finishes stationary exercise, they run to catch P2 then flapjack. Continue until they’ve made it around all 4 cones.

Exercises:
10 merkins and butt kickers
3 burpees and high knees
10 mountain climbers and karaoke

Birdcage Part 1
All pax grab some curb for merkin and shimmy: one merkin, then use arms and legs to sideways step to the right. Repeat until complaints were high enough.

Shake it out and then flip to other side of curb for dip and shimmy.

Pax then had to get in 5 lines for sprints back and forth in front of the stadium entrance.

OldBay Part 2
Pax line up on curb facing open side of parking lot for broad jumps and merkins. Pax instructed to take 2 broad jumps and then do 2 merkins. Repeat until the other side of the parking lot was reached, keeping count of how many broad jumps it took them.
14 jumps was the fewest, so all pax had to do 14 burpees.

Pax then lined up arms-distance apart, then dropped to a plan for railroad tracks. The pax at the end of the plank line had to make their way to the from the line by jumping over each planked pax. They then planked at the front of the line. Done after 2 complete cycles. We had a few minutes left, so we did 5 6-count burpees to satisfy the brass at the workout.

Birdcage part 2
Worked our way back to the front of the stadium where we did suicides, stopping at every tree for 5 bombjacks…until we run out of time (or tree, in the case of a few pax)

MARY:
Just a few moments for a few exercises. Bandcamp managed to get 2 6-count burpees in, because only dozens before wasn’t enough.

Great work by all. Thanks for the opportunity to co-lead, Birdcage.
